Lee Towers is a postdoctoral researcher working at Teesside University looking into aspects of intra- and intergenerational justice and nuclear waste solutions. He holds a PhD in applied social sciences from Brighton University. This PhD explored energy justice with a focus on community energy organisations and their work on energy poverty and climate mitigation in the United Kingdom. Previous published work includes an examination of community energy work on reducing energy poverty in the UK privatised energy system and an exploration of the intergenerational aspects of the pandemic published by Brighton University. His current postdoctoral position is funded by the Nuclear Waste Services. Matthew Cotton is professor of environmental justice and public policy in the School of Social Sciences, Humanities, and Law at Teesside University. He holds a PhD in environmental science from the University of East Anglia. His research explores the social and ethical dimensions of technology development and environmental planning, and the effective involvement of stakeholders in questions of socio-economic and ecological justice. His previous published works on these topics include the monographs: Virtual Reality, Empathy and Ethics; Nuclear Waste Politics (Routledge); and Ethics and Technology Assessment; and co-edited volumes: Governing Shale Gas (Routledge) and Engaging Environmental Justice. His research in the field of environmental justice is funded by Nuclear Waste Services; Research England; The Economic and Social Research Council; Euratom; The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office; and the National Institute for Public Health Research.
